Frozen was a smash hit, raking in almost 1.3 billion worldwide, with more than 400 million dollars in the domestic market. It also took home two Oscars – one for Best Animated Feature and the other for Best Original Song (“Let It Go”). It also won the Golden Globe and BAFTA award for best animated film.

Frozen also received positive reviews. It holds a 90% rating at Rotten Tomatoes. The consensus reads, “Beautifully animated, smartly written, and stocked with singalong songs, Frozen adds another worthy entry to the Disney canon.”

Frozen was based on the fictional kingdom of Arendelle. It is ruled by two sisters, the older of whom escapes the palace to the snowy mountains because of her fear of being stigmatised due to her magical cryokinetic powers. The younger sister goes in search of her with iceman, his reindeer and a talking snowman, Olaf. A 21-minute Frozen short Olaf’s Frozen Adventure was released with last year’s Disney-Pixar musical-animated film Coco.

Chris Buck, Jennifer Lee, Peter Del Vecho, Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Bobby Lopez along with John Lasseter and the amazing people at @disneyanimation have created a story that carries on the incredible legacy of the original #Frozen and continues to build and expand on the characters and themes in new and exciting ways.
